Astera made a fundamental shift in how they delivered value, moving from isolated software installs to a cohesive, integrated platform.


As a solo designer, I worked with the team for the transition of this suite into a modern, web-native cloud ecosystem.

Challenge

  • Transitioning complex Windows-native software to a high-performance web environment.

  • Successfully shipped the core infrastructure for Astera’s web ecosystem.
